If the united states was to be partitioned in the same way india was, the partition would be based on

economic classes.
religious groupings.
social castes.
occupational divisions.

The correct option is: "religious groupings."

The Indian society is divided by the religion practiced by its components. India is a unique country in religious matters. It is the country with the largest number of Hindus, Yainis, Sikhs, Zoroastrians and Bahais, and is the third country with the largest number of Muslims. It is the holy land of Hinduism, Buddhism, Yainism and Sikhism, and is home to important spiritual gurus and various spiritualist organizations.

far broader powers than the original constitution contemplated. it is remarkable but true that large-scale changes in

the authority of the president have been brought about

without changes in the constitutional text, but nevertheless

without significant illegality.

this is a paradox. is it not clear that constitutional

changes, if not textual, are illegal? the paradox has considerable relevance to our current thinking about the presidency in particular and about constitutionalism in general.

perhaps the framers of the american constitution feared

legislative power most of all; 2 but from well-known events

in the twentieth century, it is possible to conclude that it is

presidential power that holds out the greatest risks to both

liberty and democracy. the president is by far the most visible leader in the nation; he is often the only person in government with a national constituency. moreover, he is
